1、Designation:D3402/D3402M93(Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forTumbler Test for Coke1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3402/D3402M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A num
2、ber in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method describes a procedure for obtaining arelative measure of the resistance to degradation of coke byimpact and abrasion.1.2 Stan
3、dard ProcedureThis procedure uses a cokesample sized to 75 mm 3 in.and+50 mm +2 in.1.3 Alternative ProcedureThis procedure using coke sized50%of 63 by 50 mm 212by 2 in.and 50%of 50 by 37.5mm 2 by 112in.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as stand
4、ard.The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents;therefore,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other.Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety problems,if any,associated
5、 with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:D294 Method of Tumbler Test for Coke2D346 Practice for Collection

7、trength,the stability factorand the hardness factor,are determined by sieve analysis of thecoke after treatment.Studies have indicated that there is no realdifference in the stability factor as determined by the standardand alternative procedures.The alternative procedure produceshardness factor res
8、ults averaging slightly higher than thestandard procedure.4.Significance and Use4.1 Coke undergoes various degrees of degradation duringremoval from coke ovens,transportation,and its decent withina blast furnace to the combustion zone.These processes subjectthe coke to impact and abrasion.This test
9、method is a relativemeasure of the resistance of coke to breakage when subjectedto these degradation processes.5.Apparatus5.1 Tumbler Machine(see Fig.1)The tumbler machineconsisting of a cylindrical steel drum 910 mm 36 in.in insidediameter and 455 mm 18 in.in inside width and made of plateat least
10、6 mm 14in.thick.The machine may be constructedas a double drum mounted on a common shaft so that duplicatecoke samples may be tested at the same time.Two equallyspaced 50 by 50 by 6-mm 2 by 2 by14-in.steel anglesextending across the width of each drum are solidly fastenedinside each drum as shown.Th
11、ese angles are fastened to theshell so that the attached legs point away from the direction ofrotation,thus giving a clear unobstructed shelf for lifting thecoke.At least one door must be provided in each drum forcharging and discharging the coke sample.This door prefer-ably should extend nearly acr
12、oss the width of each drum.As analternative,a door in the side of the drum is permissible.During the test the door must be fastened rigidly to the shelland must fit into the shell in order to have a smooth continuousinner surface.A dust-tight gasket must be provided to preventloss of the abraded fin
13、es during the test.To provide for rotation,the drum is mounted on stub axles about 37.5 mm 112in.indiameter by means of flanges welded or bolted to the ends ofthe drum providing smooth inner surfaces.It is desirable thatthe apparatus be fitted with a revolution counter and preferablybe equipped with
14、 an automatic device to stop the drum after thespecified number of revolutions(1400).The tumbler drummust be replaced when the wear reduced the thickness to 3 mm18in.in any area.The lift angles must be replaced when theywear to less than 48 mm 178in.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of AST
